A tool includes a body with implements rotatably deployed from the body. The implements have notches in their bases corresponding to open and closed positions, which are engagable by a locking plate of the body. A locking lever rotatably mounted on the body includes a lock actuator plate which does not engage the locking plate when the locking lever is rotated to an unlocked position but does engage the locking plate when the locking lever is rotated to a locked position. The engagement of the locking plate causes it to contact the notches of the implement base, thereby locking the implement either open or closed. The body may be inserted into a handle, such as the handle of a combination tool, so that the operation of the locking lever also locks the body into the handle.

Adjustable floodlight holder

A binding for a snowboard has a base, side members extending upwardly and rearwardly from the sides of the base, towards the back of the base, with an arcuate member joining the rear ends of the side members. Fastening means on one side member and on one side edge of the board at the front provide for attachment of one end of each of two straps. Fastening means on the other side member and on the other side edge serve for attachment of a locking bar which in turn connects the other end of each strap to the side member and base. Attachment means are provided in the base for attachment to a snowboard. A snowboard for use in conjunction with the binding has a forward attachment position which provides for attachment of a binding inclined in either direction as desired, that is forward and to the right or forward and to the left, as desired, at about 45.degree.. A rear attachment position provides for attachment of the binding transverse of the board. The snowboard, of elongate form, has a rounded front end and both front and rear ends curve upwardly. In plan profile the snowboard is waisted and in side profile is also arched or curved. A rim extends around the periphery of the board and at the rear, in transverse cross-section, the bottom surface has a spherical surface extending downwards from the plane of the bottom surface. The board may, or may not, have steel edges.

Base for a telephone set

A shutter mechanism for a telephone directory that stores telephone numbers to be dialed. The directory has physical spaces for the entry of descriptive labels (e.g. names). The shutter mechanism has a first planar surface for providing these physical spaces. It has a second planar surface overlying the first surface. The second surface is divided into alternating opaque and transparent sections such that the surface having the names can be moved underneath the second surface such that the names can be hidden by the opaque sections or revealed by the transparent sections.
